Hello all, I'm looking for some advice on zipp 404 firecrest. I can get a brand new set (clincher, v2 hub) for £1400. At that price, I think they are very competitive but wondered people's opinions on that also?

Has anyone got a built up weight with casette, tyres, tubes and skewers?

Thanks, Scott

The weight is depend on what kinds of tyres you use. Actually firecrest 404 is heavier wheel set

What's the opinion on price point for likewise wheels around the £1400 mark, is there a better wheel with similar profiles?
